Btw, the stadimeter does work without locking the target. I use it that way all the time (manually inputting range only when the target is too far away to get an accurate stadimeter reading).
The trick is that you still need to have some part of your target in the crosshairs. Normally, I'll take a final range and bearing, using the stadimeter, just as the target's bow is crossing the lubber line (PK off) then fire torps as the juicy parts sail across.
